Each MEP gets a weighted score according to his registered activity. This score is reached by counting six different types of activities. This table list them all (reports and opinions include shadow).

The qty column contains the quantity of that type of activity in the EP.

Because there is no way to know how much effort a MEP invested on each of his individual activities, the weight column contains the relative weight of that type of activity.

MEPRanking software computes the equivalence between types according to the quantity of registered activities. Questions are taken as reference (weight = 1) because they are the simplest activity. Other weights are computed by dividing the amount of questions by the amount of each activity.

The data used to compute this score was collected at the date shown at the footer of this page (check out the line "Last update"). Some MEPs registered more activities since then, therefore there might be some differences using the most current data shown in the MEP profile pages.

The big table at left summarizes the MEPRanking weighted score of each MEP. Click on the header of each column to order by this field.

The rightest columns show the percentage of this score compared to the average in the State of the MEP, the political group s/he is attached to and the EP. These values are shown in the following tables.
